Özet
This work is an attempt to evaluate the effect of multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) reinforcement on the properties of non-crimp fabric (NCF) carbon fiber-reinforced polymer hybrid composite (CFRP). MWCNT NCF-CFRP plates were produced by vacuum infusion. Epoxy-MWCNT mixtures were prepared by adding a surfactant, Triton-X 100, and ethanol and mixing ultrasonically. The plates were subjected to thermal and electrical conductivity, DSC and FT-IR characterizations, and tensile testing. SEM image analyses evaluated tensile fracture surfaces. Results showed that 0.5 wt% MWCNT-reinforced nanocomposite samples exhibited better tensile properties than pure NCF-CFRP composites and other nanocomposite samples. The 1.5% MWCNT reinforced sample was the best conductor at all temperatures. The temperature increases also increase the conductivity. However, the conductivity value of 0.5% MWCNT reinforced material increased significantly at low frequencies such as 100-10,000 Hz. The heat reaction of the 0.5 wt% MWCNT nanocomposite was also a bit higher than that of 1-1.5 % wt MWCNT nanocomposites, indicating a decrease in the cure.
